MOP-HEAD.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 7 dated M y 1903- Application filed October 10,1902- Serial No- 126,681. (N model- To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, AUGUST S. HELD, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Freeport, in the county of Stephenson and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Mop-Heads, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates specifically to the production of the stationary portion of the head of a mop and a ferrule for connecting the same with a mop-stick. Its object is to provide a strong, light, and comparatively inexpensive jaW of the class mentioned above; and it consists in producing such jaws by first stamping their component parts out of sheet metal and then securing them together by means of rivets or otherwise.

Referring to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification, Figure 1 is an isometrical detail of two counterpart sections adapted to be united to form thesta-w tionary portion of the head of a mop. Fig. 2 is a like View of the same united to form a complete embodiment of my invention.

Like letters of reference indicate corresponding parts throughout both views.

A A are counterpart jaw-sections, having half-round sockets B B formed therein and having half-round sockets stamped therein and marginal flanges stamped thereon, and secured together, substantially as and for the purpose specified.

In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing Witnesses.

AUGUST S. HELD.

JOHN M. IRWIN, W. H. J. STRATTON.
